Today in eZ publish we got 3 different image size possibilites: small, medium and large

I want the imagesize "SmallSizeWidth" to be 150pix instead of 100 for only a couple of nodes? Is it possible to override this in any override.ini or image.ini files?

Hi,

yep, it's possible. Use the image.ini.append.

--- example image.ini.append ---

[AliasSettings]
# Defines a list of aliases that are available to
# the template engine and other clients.
# The alias must be defined as a separate INI block.
AliasList[]
AliasList[]=reference
AliasList[]=small
AliasList[]=medium
AliasList[]=large
AliasList[]=rss

[small]
Filters[]=geometry/scaledownonly=150;150

# Define customized image size
[ImageSizes]
Height[small]=150
Width[small]=150
Height[medium]=100
Width[medium]=150
Height[large]=400
Width[large]=300
Height[reference]=600
Width[reference]=600

Kind regards,
Emil.

Best wishes,
Georg.

Hmm..I don't see where you make an Imagesize override to any node here..

I'll explain.
I have a class x, class z and class y. These uses all the Imagesize small(100 in width) for displaying uploaded pictures.

Everywhere in the structure these classes shall have Imagesize 100(small), but in node a, b, c and d the displayed images shall have Imagesize 150 pix.

Do I have to make an override file (full_node_a.tpl etc.) for every node I want to make this pict. larger, and in image.ini create another size, or is it possible in image.ini to set an small-imagesize override for these nodes?

No,

image.ini is not meant for overrides, it defines what image sizes/classes are available.

You will have to create an override template for these "special nodes". You may assign them all to a new section, that way you need only one template file/rule in override.ini.

Alternatively, you could add a flag "show image as smaller" to your class definition and use that in your template to determine the image size.

Tnx. Think I go for the last one.

..or else I also have to change the role-permission if I assign this override-template to a new section for some nodes. It's only going to be a mess in the permission-system if I do so ;)
